    Add locale-sensitive ASCII transliteration API · 941b8979
    Allison Karlitskaya authored
    Add a new function, g_str_to_ascii() that does locale-dependent ASCII
    transliteration of UTF-8 strings.
    
    This function works off of an internal database.  We get the data out of
    the localedata shipped with glibc, which seems to be just about the best
    source of locale-sensitive transliteration information available
    anywhere.
    
    We include a update script with this commit that's not used by anything
    at all -- it will just sit in git.  It is intended to be run manually
    from time to time.
